PURPOSE
Farm City Day is an educational
event which invites the public to get a firsthand
look at how a dairy and other farms operate.
Farm City Day provides an opportunity to explore
the interdependence of farming, the business
community, land use, food production and our
environment. The goals of the event are to
raise awareness about agriculture and to raise
funds for the Agriculture in the Classroom
program in local schools.
Farm City Day is sponsored by the Tompkins
County Agriculture and Farmland Protection
Board. Financial support is provided through
donations from agricultural and other local
businesses and organizations.
Coordinating support is provided by Cornell
Cooperative Extension of Tompkins County.
The success of this event is dependent upon
many volunteers. Special thanks goes to the
Host Farm families and their friends who made
this event possible.
